SQLED

You know the pulsating LED found on an Apple laptop when it's asleep? That's what this Arduino library does! SQLED is an Arduino class which allows you to gently fade LEDs.

Getting Started

First, configure the PWM pin connected to the LED ####Syntax#### setup(pin_identifier) pin_identifier: the PWM pin connected to the LED.

####Example#### setup(13);

Now you can fade the LED to a specific brightness over a configurable duration ####Syntax#### anLED.fadeToBrightness(brightness_value, time_milliseconds); brightness_value: A value between 0 and 255, indicating the brightness of the LED. time_milliseconds: The amount of time taken to fade in milliseconds.

####Example####

    anLED.fadeToBrightness(128, 3000);

In the example above, the LED will fade to half it's available brightness over 3 seconds.

###Example Sketch### #include <SQLED.h> SQLED anLED;

void setup() 
{
  anLED.setup(13);
}

void loop() 
{
  anLED.loop();
  // Fade between on and off.
  if (!anLED.isFading)
  {
    if (anLED.currentVal() <= 0)
    {
      anLED.fadeToBrightness(255, 3000);
    }
    else
    {
      anLED.fadeToBrightness(0, 3000);
    }
  }
}
